2 WCC CAMPUS VOICE - aiAY 3. 1999
Because you asked* . .
By RUSTY PRATT
Q; The current
attendance policy
allows for a 20%
absentee rate. If a
student has a bonafide
emergency (sickness,
etc), does the student
have any option not to
be dismissed from class
automatically?
A: If a student has
unique circumstances
that cause him or her
to exceed the 20%
absentee rule, the
student and instructor
can meet with the Vice
President and based on
the facts presented,
special provisions may
be worked out to allow
the student to continue
classes.
Q: What are the 3
most important
qualities for the Three
Outstanding Women of
Wayne Community
College?
A; Leadership,
empathy, dedication.
Q: How do you think
history will treat the
impeachment of
President Clinton?
A: Because he wasn't
convicted, I don't
think history will
mention the impeachment
much at all. I do think
that the political
motivation will get as
much attention as what
he did.
Also, with the
economic success as it
is during his tenure
and the reduction of
the budget, these will
probably be defined as
his legacy.
Q: Do you see any
relief in the bookstore
on book pricing? Some
other schools are
attempting to reduce
prices to students by
some form of
competition.
A: The prices are
set by the piiblishers
with some mark-up for
bookstore operation. I
would think though,
hopefully, that
internet shopping may
put some pressure on
the publishers to
reduce prices.
Q: Do you see a
future "enclosed"
smoking area on campus?
Do you see a designated
smoking area in the
future?
A: I can't
personally see
requiring smokers to go
to a designated smoking
area. As long as they
are outside the
building I feel that is
enough. I also don't
see an indoor smoking
facility as being cost-
effective for the
college.
